1/22/2017 3:40 est Filed to: For Sale By: Pepper Girl 2 Comments The 2017 Porsche auction season kicked off this year in Scottsdale with mixed results. At the end of 2016 it seemed like the market for everything air-cooled was, at best, stalling. Then, everything changed with RM Sotheby's Duemila Ruote auction results. Unfortunately, that momentum didn't continue into 2017. While quite a few Porsches were sold, pricing didn't continue in the same direction that the Duemila Ruote auction seemed to indicate. Don't get me wrong, there were quite a few nice sales, but nothing (at least of what's been published so far) that was unexpected. In fact, the only unexpected results were the 2 993 GT2s that failed to sell. We're still waiting on results from a few of the auction houses and will update our post as they come in. Bonhams Of the 11 Porsches on offer at Bonhams in Scottsdale this year, 5 of them were offered without reserve. The other five of the other six had reasonable … [Read more...] about 2017 Scottsdale Porsche Auction Results

There’s something so comforting in life when the day isn’t going your way and you slump down in a bathroom stall, defeated, only to be uplifted by layers upon layers of motivational quotes—instead of insults or rumors from a decade ago—written on its walls. This 1982 Porsche 911 SC is the car equivalent of that. Also, chill. Loosen up. Stop breathing heavily while your left eye twitches. The orange color peels off, so people aren’t scribbling directly on the car’s paint. Anyway, Denver outlet ABC 7 did a story recently on a Twin Lakes, Colorado local named Riley Tinkham, who, according to the story, inherited the 911 when his father died of complications from cancer in 2016. The car sat in a garage for several years, so ABC 7 reports that Tinkham fixed it up and parked it in front of his house over the summer. He put a couple of inspirational quotes in big letters on either side of the car, and it didn’t take long for others to join in. From … [Read more...] about This Guy Put Some Markers Next to His 1982 Porsche 911 and It’s Become a Mural of Inspirational Quotes

There is a particular style among Porsche owners, melding race cues with dubious street legality, known as ‘Mulholland Racer’. In the good ‘ole days, a bunch of idiots would gather at the base of Mulholland Drive and see who could get up it the quickest. Perhaps Southern California’s version of Japanese touge racing, or just the wealthy version of street racing, it was ill advised in either case. That street racing scene is thankfully long dead, but it produced some awesome cars along the way. Derek Whitacre, over the years of owning this Porsche 911, has gradually turned his car into a Mulholland-style hot rod with a lot more power, a lot more tire, and a lot more style. With a 911 Turbo engine and transmission in a narrow-body 911, this beast is set up to haul serious ass. Derek isn’t using the car to street race, but rather for canyon carving enjoyment, as he should. He goes on long road trips, rips back roads, and goes the extra mile. Derek has racked … [Read more...] about This Fire-Spitting Porsche Is A Modern Mulholland-Style Racer
